I think they could definitely do a job with the kids too

another last gasper earned a 1-1 draw for City and preserved their unbeaten record - looking vulnerable tbh

How good is Carlos Borges? Anyone seen him play?

How did the under 21s do v Derby in the EFL cup? Saw we were 1-1

Won 3.1 with a hat trick from Carlos Borges the flying wide attacker. Twitter full of get him in the first team he's better than x or y or z!!

Clasic reaction probably from "new" City fans who wont have seen him play apart from the highlights og the goals.

He's a talent for sure and very quick and I do hope Pep is involving him with the first team to take a closer look. If we had an easy Carabao game he could easily be involved .

Thanks for the info on Borges Doug.

Youth team are 3-1 up at half time after stupidly conceding in the first minute against Dortmund

Stupidly conced3ed 2 more in the 2nd although they were very good strikes. I bit typical of that team though pretty good going forward but we do allow teams to break at us too easily and too often. Th team shape doesnt really allow for us losing the ball in bad positions.

But we are top of the group for sure with that result after Copenhagen surprisingly lost to Sevilla.

Disappointing at weekend as well as we conceded a last minute goal against Palce to draw that one 3.3 as well. Even more disappointing for me is fans weren't allowed in to watch it.

Need to plug that leaky defence if the boys are going to do anything in the knockout stages

City have signed 16 year old Emilio Lawrence from Everton. Anyone seen him play?

No but he's a City fan I think along with the rest of his family

Like Doug I reckon it won't be long before Carlos Borges is in our first team- explosive pace

I can’t see Doug making the first team anytime soon.

no way he will be first team soon but he needs to be training with them

very dignified Doug, reminding us of the seriousness of this subject, not at all suitable for jesting

Liam Delap is getting a lot of.minutes at Stoke but he is not able to find the net. 1 goal.in 12 games is a poor return considering the amount of minutes he has been given.

Hopefully it's down to the shit service. From midfield

It’s a shame Stoke were chosen purely based on the fact his dad is/was there.

There would have been better options available.
